[QUOTE="diggler1833, post: 3603910, member: 48072"] Another vote here for it not hurting anything, plus it is not a step that you have to do more than once either. I also do it with a hand reamer...only takes ~15 - 20 seconds a piece and half of that is finding the hole (insert jokes here). Also might mention that I only do it for rifle brass. I've found that good brass almost never needs it. I've had batches of Lapua and Starline brass that may get some material on every 20th piece. Federal is about 50/50, and it goes downhill from there. My last batch of virgin 6.8 SPC Hornady brass was so rough that I needed vice grips to hold the brass about every 10th piece. Literally 10 minutes spent on 50 pieces of brass. I could see more controversy if it took an hour or something, but for the little time spent/wasted I see it as a worthwhile investment of minimal effort. YMMV [/QUOTE]
